To Amy, Arielle, Astrid, Katya, Kendra, Kezia, Kim, Lucy, and Polaris:
Please post below and tell us which of your statements are true and which statement is the lie.

True I Had a Pet Cow, her Name was Five: i lived on a dairy farm and i raised Five, named after the number on her tags, was a calf that i bottle fed and hand reared. granted all dairy calves are bottle fed, but Five was a calf that i was personally given responsibility over. she was so tame you could dress her in costumes, ride on her back, and even braid her tail.

True I make my own candy like Caramels, Crystallized oranges and chocolates. i also make my own nougat and coconut macaroons. tootsie rolls, mints, doughnuts, cakes, cookies and even made a three day Tiramisu making my own Marscapone. i'm working on making my own cream puffs but i haven't figured out Pâte à choux yet.

False I had a pet fox. her name was Suzi i did have a stuffed fox.... a few dozen, okay a couple hundred stuffed foxes and one of them is named suzie but i have never had a real fox but oh man would i love to have one!

-I was always involved with student government but the only time I actually was elected to something was when I was class secretary in 9th grade.

FALSE - I was super involved in middle and high school, but the one thing I was never involved in was student government. Now that I think about it, I may have been dragged to a meeting or two, but never enough to put it on my resume, consider myself a part of it, or run for any position.

-Math was my best subject growing up, as well as my favorite. I was even in the math club in middle school.

TRUE - Yup we had a math club. We met after school to solve math problems and then we went to a tournament at the end of the year. I always loved math because there was a right answer, unlike for example, writing, which was too subjective. And I won't brag about my math achievements, but it was my best subject XD

-I was in the talent show every year at my elementary school, reciting poetry, playing the violin or piano, and/or performing song and dance.

TRUE - you guys don't think I'm talented?? haha jk. But yep, my elementary school had a huge (multi-day) talent show every year, and I usually participated in more than one act. I remember reciting a Shel Silverstein poem about counting flies in a jar, and then the "i cannot go to school today" one. I played the piano at least the first couple years, and then once I started learning violin in 3rd grade I switched to that. And my girl scout troop did 3 performances over the years: in first grade we sung and did hand motions to "Heal the world," in 3rd grade we did a skit about famous women in history, and in 5th grade we did a dance routine (choreographed by my mom >>) to a 50s medley. It was a great time haha.

TRUE My post-secondary plans coming out of high school were to major in forensic science and become a geneticist in a crime lab.

I really wanted to catch criminals with fingerprints, hair, etc. Then I got switched to Biochemistry due to the chemical nature of DNA and was bored, bored, bored. Didn't see myself in a lab with microscopes forever, but I still find genetics fascinating!

FALSE I was an active member of Debate Team through both high school and college.

I am definitely not one to debate. I get very nervous speaking in front of crowds and generally shy away from presenting anything controversial to strangers in order to avoid saying something ill-received. I'd happily debate people I'm comfortable with.

TRUE I spent 3 weeks studying in Costa Rica during my senior year of college.

My college had a "May Term", similar to a "J Term" if any of you had that, where we had to choose a 3-week accelerated course. I was an applied philosophy major, and one of my professors hosted an "Ethics of Globalization" course studying the effects of ecotourism on the rainforest. Very, very unforgettable experience. Especially zip-lining through the rainforest.

I am almost finished with uni and got a job already to start with after that.

True, in 8 weeks I can call myself a Pharmacist and the 3rd of July, I start my job at the National Pharmacovigilance Centre.

I really like cooking and am a huge fan of Jamie Oliver, and I got to meet him last year.

False, though I like baking, cooking not so much and no, I have never met Jamie

In September-October I am flying to Florida for 3 weeks to visit Disney World and Universal Studios.

True, soooo happy this is true and really happening. The flight will be long, but so worth it (I hope). I am really excited!

TrueI was in a commercial that aired on local tv. I did apply randamly from an ad and got called as an extra in an Abbott Similac tv commercial. Although being an extra means my face wasn't exactly shown

False I was part of an indie band for a few years. How I wish this was true! But sadly i have no friends interested in music and performing as I am. But it's a dream that I still haven't gave up completely.

True I spent a few hours with the mothers of famous celebrities. Japan famous celebrities Aiba Masaki(from idol group Arashi) and Koyama Keiichirou(from idol group NEWS) both have mothers that own a restaurant. I been to both while I was in Japan back in 2015. I managed to talk to the mothers and got to know them because while I was there there wasn't much customers yet.

If you haven't already, please post in this thread and tell us which of your statements are true and which statement is the lie. Curious minds want to know!
